Or, consider the fact the company just had to file bankruptcy organization after settling a class action lawsuit against them for $57.4 million. Although the company says a more recent settlement was for only $1 million and it is business as usual, they are even launching a new mouthguard product. Again, decide for yourself.

All this does not mean that the Kings current arena in Sacramento will change names, reports the Sacramento Bee. It will still be the Power Balance Arena if the Kings play any games there this season. The Kings released this statement to the Bee:

“They have been good partners since day one and are understandably taking steps to put the company in a position to continue innovation in the performance technology sector. They have assured us of their commitment to the Sacramento Kings and the surrounding community and we expect to continue our productive partnership through this process and into the future.”

Tom Ziller at Sactown Royalty summed it up well — what do you expect the Kings to do, kick to the curb one of the few companies that stepped up to be a sponsor? The Celtics and Knicks can be picky about sponsors, the Kings cannot right now.

Oklahoma City traded for Victor Oladipo out of Orlando to be their third scorer, behind Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. It didn’t exactly work out that way, Durant bolted town and when Westbrook went off Oladipo was looking for a place to fit in.

That place turned out to be the Pacers.

Oladipo has been playing like an All-Star this season with Indiana, and last week he was key in snapping Cleveland’s 13 game win streak, then turned around and dropped 47 points on Denver. For the week he averaged 35.7 points a game, shot 45.7 percent from three, plus grabbed 7.7 rebounds per game.
